Self-Harm Recovery Check-In: Friday, February 14th, 2020
Dear lovely SHR Community
How are you all doing? I haven't posted check-ins for a couple of weeks and I missed you a lot. Things got a bit tough for me and I needed some time to make sure I was ok. I am officially still on a break, but I wanted to be here today because this community has given me so much and I care deeply about you all and your recovery. You are in my thoughts and I want you to feel my care and love for you today.
Whether you have a significant other or not, whether you are in love or not, whether you love or hate Valentine's day... I would encourage you to make today a special self-love day.

Check-in questions:
How are you feeling today?
How has this week been for you? Are there any specific thoughts about it you would like to share with us?
Which self-love language could you choose for yourself today?
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
With love from France,
Valeria

Hey there Valeria, Im glad to hear from you ! Youve been in my thoughts and I hope things are going better and better, and that youre taking extra good care of yourself while on break!
As for self-love, Im definitely going to have some quality time with my sofa and some shows after work!
Take care and thanks for checking in and letting us know how youve been doing, thats very thoughtful x
Hi there @LinearWaves, thank you for your kind words!
I hope you have enojed your time with your sofa and some shows! I did pretty much the same, with a tiny wee variation: my bed instead of the sofa :)
Take care and have a lovely weekend! x
@admaiorasemper
Thank you as well!
Yes the bed is always a good alternative, pretty hard for me to chose between those two sometimes haha!
Take good care of yourself x
Please take all the time you need to take care of yourself! You're very important and I wouldn't want anything to happen to you! This week has been pretty good (other than being on my period). My brother had his birthday party on Sunday, I had some good talks with my friend, and I finished the book I was reading. All very pleasant. I think other than the usual teen mood swings I've been pretty decent mentally. For self-love I already took a long shower so I've got the physical touch one down! I think I'll do an act of service today for myself. I'm going to do some cleaning. I definately want to read today and spend some quality time with myself.

Heya ! Im glad to hear youve had a pretty good week, especially despite being on your period (lol I know how that can make things harder) It sounds like you had a really nice week filled with many pleasant moments, between your brothers birthday party, nice talks with your friends, finishing your book (what was it about by the way, if you dont mind me asking?)
I hope you got to practice some more self-love and that the new book you started is great!
Take care and thanks for checking in x
Hi there @fairmindedRaspberries1389, thank you for checking-in with me today, and thank you for your warm words. Yes I am taking good care of myself, or at least, as best as I can :)
I am glad to hear your week has been pretty good and full of nice moments. You made me smile by writing "usual teen moods", I remember them very well... and I still get them, I must have remained a teen inside :)
The self-love languages you chose sound great and I hope you enjoyed the quality time you spent with yourself yesterday.
Take care and have a nice weekend x
@admaiorasemper
I am feeling ok today. I had a long and hard week, but that was because I procrastinated so I guess I deserve it lol. I would choose "quality time".
@PurpleSnail
Hey there Purple!
I
Hi there @PurpleSnail, it is nice to read from you. Thank you for checking in with me!
I am happy to read that even if your week was so long and difficult, you are feeling ok. This shows good resilience skills :)
I hope you managed to have the quaility time with yourself you planned to have, and enjoyed it.
I wish you a lovely weekend x
